I've been looking at these two trees for 3 years now and finally got the nerve to taste a fruit from them. It was like a plum and apricot had a baby.YUM! slightly peachy.
After some serious research I found they are persimmons, very very sweet persimmons.
There are 2 trees about 25 ft each and loaded to the gills, one is ready and the other still green so this week I plan to get as many as possible and freeze for future usage.
I already know I'm making a mead with some and looking to know if some make likker with them as well.
I believe jb did but I'll have to search or wait for him to chime in.
More to come folks,

Oh, there are 2 more of these trees at the woods edge of my shop too that are loaded.
